Re: For the record

I have been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis . I haven't long been with a new rheumatologist that prescribed me a regimine of meds that REALLY made a difference. I could run again without pain!
Anyhow, to my point... I didn't know if I should take my meds while doing mc so I called his office and waited for a return call. Did I mention that I'm still waiting for that call???
I started mc while taking my meds then one day I didn't take them. I just wanted to see what would happen. You need to realize that PRIOR to these new meds I was in endless chronic pain. I was scarred to leave my meds behind. I decided to listen to my body and at the FIRST sign of pain to take them again.
Well, I havent taken my meds in 5 days now :> and you want to know what happened??? I can STILL run! I feel great and on top of that the next day I stood on the scale to discover I had lost weight which was mostly fat loss; not water and not muscle.
My novice take on it? You can listen to your doctor who knows a lot about medicine OR you can listen to your body who knows a whole lot more about you.
